Studying abroad is all about cultural immersion, and what’s more immersive than going on dates with people who are from the very place you are studying and speak the language you are learning! I talked to three of my friends from IES Abroad Granada about their experiences on the Spanish dating scene. 

Friend #1:

My first friend tells me all about the University of Granada student that she casually dated during the semester.

How did you meet? “We met on Tinder”

I spent much of my youth peering out my childhood bedroom window. 

No, it’s not that there was much to see. The other side of the window glass was mainly the white wall of my neighbor’s South Florida home. Over the years, my mother tried to ‘brighten’ my view – she would hang outdoor flower baskets and scatter bird feed that more often attracted squirrels than the hummingbirds she loved so much.
